Construction to alter Cape Bridge toll traffic

May 11, 2012

Traffic patterns at the Cape Coral Bridge toll plaza will be changing next week due to continuing construction to the plaza.

To shift the traffic patterns, westbound and eastbound lanes must be closed overnight on May 14. The new travel pattern for westbound lanes takes effect when lanes are reopened at 7 a.m. May 15.

Beginning at 8:30 p.m. on May 14 until 7 a.m., May 15 westbound lanes to the bridge will be closed to traffic while crews place barrier walls for a new traffic pattern at the plaza.
